The national title is the second in program history as the 2018 squad joins the 1991 team as the only two men’s volleyball programs at Long Beach State to win a national champion- ship. Head coach Alan Knipe secured his first national title as a head coach, and second overall as he was a junior on the 1991 squad. After winning the first set, Long Beach State (28-1) dropped the next two and had its back up against the wall in the fourth set, but the Beach battled back and knocked off UCLA (26-8) on its home court of Pauley Pavilion in front of an electric crowd of 7,248 to force a fifth set. Then, with the match tied at two sets a piece, Long Beach State earned a 15-12 victory over the Bruins to capture the title. The Beach had three players named to the NCAA All-Tournament Team led by Most Outstanding Player, Josh Tuaniga. Joining Tuaniga on the All-Tournament Team were juniors TJ DeFalco and Kyle Ensing.

  • Minors Will Try to Drink to WSU Students Said
    WASHINGTON UMMER STATE UNIVERSITY ;VERGREEN Wednesday, June 27, 1984 Established 1894 Vol. 90; No. 155 Recent senate action by Gina Jausoro Evergreen Staff Congress recently initiated two forms of "bribery" to state govern- ments in an attempt to lessen the nationwide concern with drinking and driving, according to a Representa- tive's spokesman. The first attempt to solve the prob- lem of driving while under the influ- ence of alcohol is a proposed Constitu- tional Amendment which would unify the nationwide drinking age to 21. The Lautenberg Bill, sponsored by Senator Frank Laurenberg, 0- N.J., proposes withholding highway funds to states that do not raise their drinking age to 21 within a two-year time period. The government will withhold five percent of funds the third year for failure to comply, and ten percent the fourth year. Presently, 22 states have 21 as the legal drinking age, three at 18, and the rest at 19. Idaho is one of the states enforcing the 19-year-old minimum age for the purchase of liquor. "Is it fair for the federal government to blackmail states this way?" Greg Casey, Staff Director for Representa- tive Larry Craig, Rvldaho. said. "It's always been a state issue," he added. Washington state Representative Thomas Foley echoed Crain's opinion. "He is totally against the idea of the government intruding into an area which should be decided by the Daily Evergreen Scott Griffis states," Bill First. a spokesman for Foley said. Proprietors of local taverns and bars are startled by the proposed amend- ment. "The matter should be left up to the state," Brad Bredesen, manager of The Spruce, a Moscow tavern popular Minors will try to drink to WSU students said.

  • 2004 Ncaa Championship Recap
    2004 NCAA CHAMPIONSHIP RECAP BYU's Fourth Win over 49ers Has Title Ring BYU's top-ranked men's volleyball team captured its third National Collegiate Men's Volleyball Championship since 1999 with a 3-2 victory over Long Beach State May 8 at the Stan Sheriff Center in Honolulu. It was the Cougars' second crown in the past four years. It was a hard-fought victory for BYU, which won the match, 15-30, 30-18, 20-30, 32-30, 19-17. Jonathan Alleman's four kills in the fifth game helped put the Cougars over the top. "On the stat sheet they outplayed us," said BYU head coach Tom Peterson. "But, the bottom line is, it just seemed like we had the heart whenever we needed it. The team absolutely did it all at the end, just like they've done all year." Peterson made NCAA history by becoming the first men's coach to win a national championship with two different teams. He previously led Penn State to the title in 1994. BYU ended its season at 29-4, while Long Beach State posted a 28-7 campaign, with four of the losses to the Cougars. Long Beach State quickly cruised to a 30-15 win in game one, but the Cougars gained the momentum in game two. The match swung back toward Long Beach State's favor in game three as the 49ers broke an 11-11 tie and ended the game on a 19-9 run. BYU then extended the match by winning a fourth game that included 13 ties but only two lead changes.
